When I opened the launcher today and it started automatically loading the patch, a window appeared saying a virus was detected and that I needed to restart my computer to remove it.

Name: W32/Trojan2.AUFT
File: C:\DOCUME~1\JON...\FIESTA.PATCH.1.2.100.EXE

A virus scan found the virus in five outspark related files. I'm letting you know, because I don't know if someone hacked you or if they merely hacked me.

Yeah I found this virus too, because of it I can't manually download the patch and I can't play anymore >:(

I've seen other reports of this W32/Trojan2.AUFT popping up last night in unrelated forums as a false positive. Please disable your virus scanner to run the patch, and then re-enable it after the patch has updated.

well, i guess you can never be too sure, but we scan all of our patches for viruses before we release them and there were no viruses found.

here's the md5 sum of the patch for anybody who wants to check the integrity of the downloaded patch, to make sure it wasn't corrupted during/after download:

Sorry for the late reply. I looked on other unrelated forums and also found this virus listed as a false positive, so I disable anti-virus to run patch then renabled it afterward. So far all is fine. I should have said this sooner, as I figured it out soon after posting, but I forgot to until now. My apologies.
